I am trying to post a message or a picture to google plus, but I have no idea what kind of url or method should I use, please give me some advice.
Google Plus uses Picasa for managing photos. You can use some Picasa Module for node.js in order to upload Photos.
Here is what I've found through quick googling: https://www.temboo.com/library/Library/Google/Picasa/PostPhoto/

I am looking for ways to get users posts with graph instagram and node js but i could not find api to get another user posts with access token I only have access to my own posts with json data
it would be great if you show me best way
might be a job for python just saying, it is definitely possible in js but as it seems, you will need to make EVERYTHING from 0 - 100, i recommend just using python for that
Have a look at this it may help a bit
Link
and this to take photos of any user Link
Try this node js library: https://www.npmjs.com/package/instagram-web-api#getphotosbyusernameparams
There is .getPhotosByUsername method which should work for you
I am currently builidng a chatbot with nodejs. I have my Images stored in a MongoDB now I want to send a Image to facebook but I only got the Base64 String and Facebook wants an URL. Anyone who knows a solution for that?
In php you make a script to render the image, like http://someurl?img=base64string I think in node is pretty much the same workaround. Make sense for you?
I'm trying to call GA api in a react/webpack/babel project using google-api-nodejs-client. However it doesn't work. I've got multiple error in my console. On the google-api-nodejs-client GitHub's issues I found the following answers about a similar issue :
google-api-nodejs-client is not meant to be used in a browser—it won't
work. googleapis (google-api-nodejs-client) will work in Node.js.
Excluding googleapis from any server-side bundle (just let Node's
module system load it for you) is the best option.
To access Google APIs from a browser, please use the Google API Client
Library for JavaScript (gapi).
I don't really understand it. Can someone explain this differently ?
thanks.
A few days ago, I was playing around with a local API(not Google) and it required me to provide a Redirect Uri while trying to setup my app in their dashboard.
I did some googling and top searches led me to oAuth2.0 and Google Developer's website. But this API I'm using is not related with any of Google's so I thought it won't be relevant.
Is the setup of Redirect Uri for most APIs universal or almost the same? What programming languages can I use to implement this?
The description also says I need to parse a subscriber_number and access_token in JSON format. How do I do that?
Please note that I have already found a free hosting site via Firebase and have provided my own link. I also did the initial steps from another user to fire the required access_token that I needed to parse from the Redirect Uri. But accessing it from the browser right after triggering doesn't give me anything. I'm so clueless. Any help is much appreciated!
I am new to instagram and i am tasked to program an application to grab instagram photo uploads based on a certain hashtag. Meaning if the application is started and searching for the hashtag "#awesomeevent" any one that uploads a photo with that hashtags it will automatically be stored into our database.
The application should work something similar to http://statigr.am/tag/ but instead displaying the photos it should store the photos into the database.
What is the process of doing this. Any tutorials that has this from start to end. Even covering how to start creating a instagram app from scratch. any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Things we developers often overlook are the API Terms and Conditions. I've been there myself.
API TERMS OF USE
Before you start using the API, we have a few guidelines that we'd like to tell you about. Please make sure to read the full API Terms of Use
Terms of Use. Here's what you'll read about:
Instagram users own their images. It's your responsibility to make sure that you respect that right.
You cannot use the Instagram name in your application.
You cannot use the Instagram API to crawl or store users' images without their express consent.
You cannot replicate the core user experience of Instagram.com
Do not abuse the API. Too many requests too quickly will get your access turned off
However, a part in the terms also states that:
You shall not cache or store any Instagram user photos other than for reasonable periods in order to provide the service you are
providing to Instagram users.
Hope that's a start before you actually get coding and storing images.
API Terms of Use: http://instagram.com/about/legal/terms/api/
API: http://instagram.com/developer/
For starter, you should consult to instagram api.
As for the specific api you will need is:
/tags/tag-name/media/recent
For example, if you want to look for images from tag #awesomeevent, you will do an api query to:
https://api.instagram.com/v1/tags/awesomeevent/media/recent?access_token=ACCESS-TOKEN
I would have a look at the two libraries Instagram provides. The ruby library is at https://github.com/Instagram/instagram-ruby-gem and the python library is at https://github.com/Instagram/python-instagram
They both seem to have examples to get you started if you're programming with either libraries.
As far as the storing issue goes, could you instead store the URL address of the images instead of the actual images themselves? The API returns JSON information of which the URL of the images are returned.
Hope that helps.
You can use the below ruby script to retrieve the images and save them to a file. You can then either reference the file within the database or replace the last block with code for your particular database implementation. Without knowing your database type and schema, no one can tell you how to add something to it.
require "instagram"
require "restclient"
Instagram.configure do |config|
config.client_id = INSTAGRAM_CLIENT_ID
config.client_secret = INSTAGRAM_CLIENT_SECRET
end
instagram_client = Instagram.client(:access_token => INSTAGRAM_ACCESS_TOKEN)
tags = instagram_client.tag_search('cat')
urls = Array.new
for media_item in instagram_client.tag_recent_media(tags[0].name)
urls << media_item.images.standard_resolution.url
end
urls.each_with_index do |url, idx|
image = RestClient.get(url)
path = Dir.pwd + "/#{idx}.jpg"
File.open(path, 'w') {|f| f.write(image) }
end
